It would have been cool to grow up in the 60's for car guys :thumb:   I was a teenager in the 80's and we all know what they were putting out in the 80's :(

I was a teenager in the late 70's . Most teenagers drive 10 yr old cars so in high school, we all had the good stuff.

Yeah we were cheated as teens in the 80's.   Guys in my area made some damn nice looking Monte Carlo's, Olds Cutlass and Buick Regals in the early-mid 80's.   Still trying to find a 83-84 Hurst Olds.   Some pretty sweet G-body's but they were slow as fuck.  :lol:   My brother had an incredible looking one.   Two tone with t-tops and Craiger keystone classic wheels with Uniroyal white letters.   Damn that was a nice car.

Yup,  I  love the looks of my monte SS. 

I liked all my mustsang GT  Fox bodies. 

Granted, you had to yank the motors out of  all 80’s cars , but with some actual hp there are some cool rides.

Yeah the Camaro's were really popular in my area and the late 80's.  Personally I liked the early mid 80's G-Body better.

I saved up in HS and bought a leftover 87 Monte Carlo SS in 88. It was my 1st car loan and my parents had to co-sign. I borrowed $5500 over 3 years. I want to say they were $160/mo.

Same.  I like a car with long front end & short tail.  The problem with most of the cars from that era is stance.  You have got to get em sit right.  Cars with ground effects look retarded with a foot of ground clearance.
